Its a strange beast the NRL, when you think players like Chris Thorman played out there, yet came back to only reasonable success in the superleague.

I think that its a different type of player suited to the nrl than superleague, Gaz Ellis for instance was basically a defence machine who wasnt noted for his ball skills particularly, Flanaghan the same.

On the other hand, you have guys like Mick Dobson, or Pat Richards, not exactly superstars in the NRl but seem to thrive in Superleague.



As for Mr Gould, id give it a week or so, or until a Brit in the NRL drops a pass before he is back to calling Superleague park football, the man just likes getting some publicity. British lads playing for Sydney clubs will be the reason that NSW are losing the SOO next!

At last.



Someone else who doesnt view games involving Wests and Souths with their England sunnies on

I agree to an extent; there's better back rowers knocking about.

But considering the kids age, he's a hell of a lot better than you'd give him credit for

He's the best for his age in any part of the world by a country mile. Ellis in the top 4 2nd rowers in the NRL and would be a Kangaroo and SOO player if he was Australian.



My ratings would be:



1. Thaiday

2. Ellis

3. Myles

4. Burgess

5. Watmong

6. Taylor

Where's Paul Gallen?

thanks for clearing that up for us
